MUSA Wars 2026, a yearly spectacle where all collective departments within the student body unite for competitive camaraderie, and amidst the heat, rise victors who claim discounted feasts via Grab rewards. This year was no different than the previous years, as excitement buzzed in the room where participants gathered. The constant chatter provides a true…

Monash Music Club Social Night: In the Midst of all the Noise by Harry Vangphen
It was a dark and stormy night… No, really, it was. Atmosphere was the key word here – the turbulent weather had set the stage just right for the Monash Music Club’s Social Night. It seemed as if divine intervention favored the musicians and their cause. Following their brief residency at the foyer in C&S…
MUSA DID WHAT #4 : A vote that doesn’t sit right by Rohmatus Saniyah
EMERGENCY MEETING. I don’t know when I will finish writing this, even as one of the fastest meetings I have attended, the weight of what just happened lingers longer than the meeting itself. The issue is serious. And the room knew it. The announcement travelled fast, through side conversations, and the thin, familiar walls of…
C&S Week S1 2026 : Through Three Lense By : Azreen, Harry & Bryan
Did you hear? Apparently, Monash came to life. On most days, the campus moves with a certain predictability. Corridors stay quiet, stairways echo with occasional footsteps, and classrooms fill with students arriving somewhere between eager and exhausted. Some come to learn, some come to sleep and some convince themselves that waking up at 8 a.m….
IWD x HPV EVENT: Monash Welfare Society Helping Curiosity Beat Awkward Conversations by Fareesay Najeeb
A guy gripping a table and laughing nervously while a small machine sends waves of “period cramps” through his abdomen isn’t exactly what you expect to see on a regular afternoon at Monash University Malaysia. Yet that moment turned out to be one of the most effective conversations about women’s health on campus. The IWD…
MUSA DID WHAT #3: When Student Life Meets Student Strife by Rohmatus Saniyah
While wars rage outside, internal battles in MUSA continue within. Not the kind fought with weapons, but the quieter struggles of student governance – negotiations behind closed doors, delayed responses, unanswered emails, and the constant balancing act between student initiatives and institutional process. The third Monash Student Council meeting began at 7 pm, marking the…
February Orientation 2026: The ecstasy of a fresh start by Rohmatus Saniyah
The fresh breeze with the quiet hum of Monday morning blues decides to greet the week in the softest way possible. The welcoming session carried that unmistakable tension for the ‘first day’: hands clutching phones, sleepy eyes, conversation happening in a low, careful tone as students adjusted themselves to fluorescent lights. This semester’s cohort is…
MUSA DID WHAT #2: Blueprints & Big Questions
by Rohmatus Saniyah WE have an interesting yet whimsical update from various divisions and departments. MSC 2 felt more like the paperwork before the firework. They kept us at the edge of our seats and told us to wait and see till the day comes. This meeting was not loud, nor particularly dramatic, it was…
MUSA DID WHAT #1: New Year, Before the Noise
by Rohmatus Saniyah MONGA unofficially dubbed this meeting a void catcher for a reason. Not long after 2026 was born, the year began quietly, with a concise agenda laid out by the MUSA General Secretary for the first Monash Student Council meetings–MSC 1.1 and MSC 1.2– with the first meeting held on what happened to…
Monash Cultural Night: A Blue-Tinted Fever Dream That Lasted Too Long by Jananee Jagadeesan
Monash Cultural Night, MUISS’s flagship event, was held on 12th October 2025, the night many international students had been anticipating all year, unfolding in the TSR Conference Hall bathed in blue. Not the calming, meditative blue of a wellness app no one opens after Week 3, but a curated, cinematic shade that made shadows linger…
Cinemusica: Experiencing Music in Motion by Reona
In the debilitating lull of overlapping assignments, the looming threat of exams and the existential dread of being a student, the cinemusica was the best experience for a temporary solution to forgetting all of those things. Walking into campus felt ordinary like any other day but walking into auditorium 2 past the crowd of excited…
Monash Ball ‘25: A Magical Night in Atlantis
The semester is finally over! And for some of us that means a nice, chill holiday before the next semester starts again or finding a job and getting ready for graduation. But before the coming future of endless possibilities begins, MUSA Activities put together one last huzzah for Monashians. A night of fun-filled activities and…
Rebellion through Glitch and the Iconoclastic Malaysian Hyperpop
Our Malaysian world is a world of vertigo. Tanah Malaysia kita pusing berputar dan muzik menghulurkan maksud kepada kehidupanmu yang terpaksa dipolitikkan. The politicisation of hyperpop has unabashedly become a resistance towards politically-motivated crimes against humanity, acquiring the ephemeral freedom to express and utilising that as a political tool when politicians use our lives as…
MUISS International Games Night: Spirits High (Play, Laugh, Repeat) by Khardeeja Sapora
Under the haunting glow of Halloween lights, the air buzzed with a kind of newness – fresh faces and a fresh energy in the Monash University Malaysia Sports Hall. It wasn’t gory, but there was definitely something in the air: a new kind of thrill, the kind that comes when strangers meet for the first…
Monch! 117 Coffee Dine, Cheras – Bring Forth the Chazuke
Minimalism does not necessarily operate through the idea of subversiveness. We’ve reclaimed that idea and transmuted it into perceptions that are comforting and inviting. The maximalism-minimalism continuum does not exist in isolation of food and beverage. It is very much characteristically unique to the branding of the restaurant and we see these motifs carefully intertwined…
